A vegetarian's guide to New York

Tacombi

Walking down Bleecker Street, we
played restaurant roulette and simply chose the most vibrant eatery
without a line. We came across Tacombi, which serves 'la autentica
cocina yucateca'. The interiors are mostly white with punches of
colour and the space is flooded with light - perfect for snapping
the Instagramable food. To start, we shared guacamole with homemade
topopos. Fresh and inviting, this was the perfect way to restore
our energies after a long morning walk. We tried two tacos: Crispy
Fish, beer battered Alaskan cod with homemade poblano mayonnaise;
and Mayita Vegetariana with heirloom beans, sweet potatoes, salsa
and queso. Paired with a pitch-perfect margarita containing
fermented agave rather than hard liquor due to a nearby church (how
American!), this meal hit the spot.
